I started using these projects when I first got back into gaming even though they didn't have a 5e license. I still have not found a better product for building homebrew campaigns. I expect I'll still get a lot of use out of these products for a couple of years, but I'm using DnD Beyond for all rules reference and charactersheets and I'm seriously following World Anvil. It really doesn't hold a candle to RealmWorks for home brew, but Frog God Games is doing some cool things with their IP where they'll be releasing it on World Anvil for others to create their own content in their setting.I've put my home brew world on ice and have been running Rappan Athuk. Putting existing content into RW is a lot of work. If FGG puts their Lost Lands setting and adventures in World Anvil, I'll likely live with the limitations just to have access to all that content entered for me. Also, World Anvil is being actively developed and adding new features all the time. The risk of course is that if World Anvil goes out of business, you just lose everything. Even though RW is no longer being actively developed, I can still continue to run my games and create new content. Even though I see myself moving away from LWD products (mostly because I play DnD 5e), I do wish LWD the best though. The owner and main developer, Rob, has struggled with serious health issues and seems to have bit off more than his small company could chew with the RealmWorks kickstarter. I hope they can focus on making Herolabs Online an excellent product and right their ship.</blockquote>
